:02:03
A whole community of little creatures
have had millions of years...
:02:06
...to adapt to the impossible
conditions in this desert.
:02:11
This one must have had three legs.
:02:14
This one only one.
:02:27
The beetles who live here
have an air-cooled cooling system...
:02:30
...like a Volkswagen, so they have
to run like crazy to keep their cool.
:02:35
Even courting has to be done on the run.
:02:50
A quick kiss at full gallop,
and the romance is over.
:02:56
When you can't run any longer...
:02:57
...you have to dig like mad
to get out of the heat.
:03:06
He goes in upside down.
:03:16
He doesn't dig, he just walks right in.
:03:23
And this one pulls
the blanket over his head.
:03:26
And the gecko dives in
as if the sand is water.
:03:33
This beautiful person has a different
cooling system, more like a limousine.
:03:37
She doesn't have to dash around
like those Volkswagen types.
:03:41
She can take life more slowly.
She even has a windshield wiper.
:03:45
She cleans her eyes with her tongue.
:03:49
And digging is done at leisure.
:03:52
First the right hand,
then the right foot at half speed.
:03:59
Then the left hand, left foot...
